The '''meowgician''' (originally '''CatMage''') is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]'', it is an anthropomorphic cat with mage-like qualities.
The '''Meowgician''' is a monster in the series.


==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
The meowgician is a bipedal cat monster wearing an orange robe with the ability to cast magic, and is often among the first monsters that the player encounters that can cast magic. It carries a carved wooden staff and wears a necklace with a bell. It usually knows Frizz (Blaze).
Meowgicians are anthropomorphic [[Beast family|cat]] mages with light grey fur. They wear orange robes, bronze bells around their necks, and carry gnarled wooden staves that they use to cast simple fire spells. However, the felines are just as likely to waste their turn in battle washing their faces instead of casting magic. In various monster descriptions, the meowgician is said to hide a second tail under its robe and lived for a century prior to learning magic, which are references to the [[Wikipedia:Nekomata|nekomata]] yokai of Japanese mythology, which is a cat whose tail split into two and took on magical properties after living for 100 years.

Meowgician appeared from the beginning of the game. Once again, their repertoire is limited to casting [[Frizz]] in battle. They also have a tendency to waste their turn in battle washing their faces and will flee when threatened. Starting in Version 2.0 of the game, [[Monster Master]]s are able to tame meowgicians as a [[Monster recruitment|monster companion]]. In Version 5.0 of the game, Vicious meowgicians can be faced in the [[Netherworld]], where they cast [[Kafrizz]].
